Most Christians including those of the Catholic faith believe that Jesus is the son of God and he was conceived by Immaculate Conception.

“It’s hard to believe and to take in. We’ve stuck with rules that we have invented without reaching the true message,” she added.

PAY ATTENTION:

The Bishop of Vic in a statement condemned the actions of the nun and asked the laity to desist from debating people on the virginity of Mary.

“The belief that Mary was a perpetual virgin forms part of the faith of Church from its beginnings and that this truth of faith was collected and proclaimed by the Second Council of Constantinople, being the primary Marian dogma observed by Catholic and Orthodox Christians,” he said. “Such statements do not conform to the faith of the Church.”

Sister Lucia is well known for her controversial statements and she is also vocal in her support for Catalan Independence from Spain.
